Rebuild the Whatipu wharf

We want to see Council put ferries on the Manukau Harbour, and having a wharf at Whatipu would open up a great destination. We need people to see the Manukau as a wonderful tourist and recreational resource, and a wharf at Whitipu would greatly enhance this idea. The road to Whatipu is arduously long and not the best to drive, so giving an alternative would be wonderful.

Commit to sorting out the water treatment plants and improving the water quality of our beaches. Make a difference that will be remembered.

Stop putting effluent into the Manukau Harbour at the shallowest, most populated end .Stop lying about the reasons for Kauri Die back, open

Clean up the Manukau Harbour, re-Open ALL OUR tracks, do your homework on KDB! & Stop the TMA cutting down exotic trees

Help heal the Manukau Harbour

The Manukau Harbour is suffering, and has been suffering for too long. Work with the other local boards that surround the Manukau Harbour and use your collective voice to get change. We want the waters cleaned up, which means stopping the continuous dumping of treated wastewater into the harbour. A deep sea pipeline needs to be investigated. Make your collective voices heard and get the focus brought to the Manukau.

Run a deliberative hui on climate change and how our community response should be incorporated into the local plan.

20 randomly selected people spend a day being briefed, asking questions, and then discussing what the WRLB and our community should to do to reduce our carbon emissions and to prepare ourselves for the impacts of climate change. If it looks helpful, do it again.
